How many postings do you want to clutter on the forums? Instead of that post ONE complete report.

sorry... I've had bad experiences in the past where I accidentally posted on a not so correct board and the post never got answered. I guess I overreacted...

update: Apologies for the other messages--I was able to remove them. This is the only thread on this topic.

Now post some info to get this closer to something where somebody can help you.

I've already posted the relevant details; particularly in regards to glidos, which uses a prearranged special version of dosbox that already has all the details set.

I have been fortunate to get in contact with the glidos dev since I first posted this question, who provided some insight--it's possible dosbox is simply overwhelmed in trying to play redbook audio and emulate 3dfx, affecting the music playback.

You can try try to run the game in software mode and see if that makes a difference
Also try a SVN build of DOSBox
and also try using imgmount in DOSBox and mount a .bin/.cue of the CD

No you didn't. You did not even post BASIC stuff as system specs.

With all due respect, the glidos dev felt that what I had posted was sufficient (that was why I had posted on that board, until I deleted it at people's request). I feel my communication with them has sufficiently answered my question and there is no need for others to keep pressing. I just wanted to keep my details private until I could figure out whether others had encountered this problem before.

Ok.
